Just on my way back from a wonderful morning celebrating a fab 14 year partnership between @fire_scot and @AnthonyNolan 19,000 donors recruited of which 105 have gone on to donate, giving patients a second chance of life. Huge thanks to @fireboyle@andywattSFRS for their vision.
A wonderful trip to see @fireboyle and @andywattSFRS of our @SFRSYourSafety and @AnthonyNolan Partnership.
Inspiring people and an inspiring partnership that makes an incredible difference saving and improving lives.
16-30? Please join the stem cell register – you could give someone like Francis a second chance of life.
We’re particularly asking more young men to join the register - they make up a high percentage of donors but are less represented on the register.

🚨PLEASE SHARE: Fight for Francis 🚨
Three-month-old Francis from Liverpool urgently needs your help. His parents have received the heartbreaking news that their baby has an aggressive form of blood cancer, and doctors have said a stem cell transplant is his only chance of a cure
Today's the day that Leland got to ring that 🔔 His transplant is complete & onto his next journey, recovery & staying healthy. I can't thank Ward 3 BMT @GreatNorthCH enough for fantastic care & treatment @AnthonyNolan for finding that match & everyone who has supported him
This is Leland. He’s 6. He’s cheering for @Blyth_Spartans tomorrow. I’m cheering for @Wrexham_AFC. But we’d both like to beat his cancer. Leland’s looking for a match.
Find out if you’re that match ⬇️

We're looking for a new trustee @AnthonyNolan to support our lifesaving work. We look for trustees with different backgrounds, careers & life-experience, competencies, professional skills & diversity of thought. Find out more here: https://t.co/TagJRljBN1
We’re extremely sad to hear that Maisie Ryan, an inspirational Marrow volunteer, has recently passed away. Maisie was a much-loved Marrower, first getting involved with @NewcastleMarrow while studying medicine at uni, before joining the National @UKMarrow Committee in 2016.
This is one of my favourite days. It’s @UKMarrow National Virtual Conference. I’m always utterly inspired by the passion & energy of these incredible uni students recruiting and fundraising for @AnthonyNolan to save lives. Thank you. You’re an awesome bunch and see you soon!
Watching an episode of Ambulance on BBC iPlayer tonight - is that a @UKMarrow alumnus we spy? 👀
Well done Lewis from @MancMarrow!
Grateful to get to meet people from all across the UK through the Marrow network & so great to hear the amazing things Marrowers go on to do 😊
Our work doesn't stop during lockdown and we need to keep recruiting potential lifesavers!
If you are 16-30, in good health and weigh more than 50kg, sign up to the stem cell register today!
LOCKDOWN LIFESAVERS 💙
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a huge drop in people registering as a potential stem cell donor and Anthony Nolan urgently need to recruit more potential lifesavers to their register.
Check out our Fb page- Sheffield Marrow for more info 💙
👏 Warm up those hands and get ready to #ClapForOurCarers at 8pm tonight! There are countless numbers of people providing vital, lifesaving care during this difficult time and now we get to say THANK YOU! Join us at 8pm and post your #ClapForOurCarers in the replies below! 👏
Could UU be a match for someone like @UlsterUni student, Thomas Cafolla?
Ulster University Marrow are running two donor recruitment events with @AnthonyNolan next week. They will be at the Coleraine campus on Monday, and Magee on Tuesday, searching for potential lifesavers.
‘When I found out that people from a BAME background have less chance of finding a lifesaving match, I couldn’t get my head around it.’
